The halftime interval in Sunday’s World Cup final between Spain and Argentina is set to last more than 15 minutes because of the installation required for the tournament’s 11-minute halftime show, broadcasting sources told Reuters on Friday.
The installation is expected to take about seven minutes before the performance begins, the sources said, extending the break beyond soccer’s traditional 15-minute halftime interval.
